The Best Hotels Near Our Habitas Namibia, by the Record
-
Floor-to-ceiling windows and a private deck mean you're essentially sleeping inside the savanna view. This safari lodge runs against type: less ceremony, more communal spirit, with group excursions into Namibia's landscapes and cultures sitting alongside yoga, spa treatments, and a restaurant working with local ingredients. Freestanding hillside rooms give you all the solitude you'd want, though the Habitas ethos is quietly nudging you toward the communal fire.

Ten clay-walled, thatched huts sit inside Namibia's N/a'an Ku Sê wildlife sanctuary, which is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here. It's a classic safari lodge, Michelin two-keyed, with picture windows, freestanding tubs, and rain showers that make the whole "roughing it" framing somewhat theoretical. Sunrise game drives cover rhinos, elephants, and big cats; there's a spa, an infinity pool, and al fresco three-course dinners for when the wildlife has had enough of you.
